Towards the optimal ‘slot combination’ for steady-state torque ripple minimization: an eight-pole cage rotor induction motor case study
2020
Overview
This paper analyses the impact of the number of stator slots to rotor bars, i.e. the slot combination, in a cage rotor induction motor (IM) on its electromagnetic torque ripple during steady-state conditions. The study is focused on a conventional low voltage, eight-pole, three-phase, mains-fed IM design. To adequately evaluate the torque ripple magnitude, a ‘torque ripple factor’ is introduced and numerically calculated. To this end, IM behaviour in two common eight-pole stator slot number geometries is examined using numerical models, where, for each examined stator geometry, operation with a range of different rotor bar numbers used in practical IM designs is evaluated. For the sake of completeness and cross-validation, two different modelling approaches are used: a recently reported low-computational intensity winding function-based model and a commercial finite element analysis electromagnetic modelling software package. The paper findings deliver a detailed insight into the impact of rotor bar number, whether skewed or otherwise, on the motor steady-state torque ripple level. The presented results are indicative of the fact that the number of rotor bars only, and not the slot combination, is the dominant factor that influences the electromagnetic torque ripple in IMs with skewed rotor bars.
